But I am desperately disappointed in our season. We blew a fantastic chance to make a European place IMO. Totally under performed and under achieved all round and yet despite this complete **** up of the last third of the season, we finished above your lot. I know who should be embarrassed and it ain't us. Lol
Maersk, Zealand was an American company that maersk bought out years ago but shouldn't have anything to do with the oil industry like.
We were tipped for relegation at the beginning of the season, not even the most deluded of Newcastle fans would be disappointed with the season we have had!
One of my best mates works for Maersk, i call them sealand cos i can't pronounce Maersk! He's in China at the minute.
He must be deep sea on the container ships is he???? That's where I was before me and our lass had a bairn so transferred to the offshore side to get shorter trips away to spend time with the bairn and that.
Exactly right mate, he's been over about 5 month now, he was a bit 'naughty' with his tax in the self employed days, so he's working his bollocks off now to pay off the backlogue, ha. No booze now either is it? Ouch.
Right, lets put it this way: 5under1and are an 'established' Premier League team. Newcastle are a newly promoted team. 5under1and finished above Newcastle. It was to be expected, though it seemed unlikely until 5.48 this afternoon. The fact that 5under1and struggled to finish above a newly promoted Newcastle represents failure. The fact that Newcastle were relegated and were a newly promoted team this year represents failure. We should both count our blessings that we're not smogs. Nothing to cheer about either way really, 5-1 was sweet but finishing higher was likewise for 5under1and. ****e season all round. Here's to a better 2011/2012 boys
Haha, the tax man caught up with me as well but it's all sorted now like thank god. Aye, no booze. Cripples me going out with the lads when I get home now, 29 year old I should be in my prime but I'm on my arse after a few pints, it's depressing haha.
The booze ban probably saved his life mate, he was a machine, i've never seen a man down Guinness, pint after pint, like he used to. He's a fanny now, but he looks a wee bit healthier for it, ha. Seems you all dodge your tax, then get rumbled, he was gonna move to Romania(!) to dodge it, then thought better of it, mad bastard.
Tell you what mate, if it wasn't for the tax break I wouldn't do this job like, miss out on too much. I'm set for my 3rd Christmas away this year and it's utter ****e. If I was paying tax, I might as well work at home. I think you need something like 6 months out the uk to qualify so I'm normally ok doing 5and a half weeks away, 4 and a half weeks at home.
That must be what JP's doing then, getting 6 months away under his belt. He does ok out of it mind, and he's got no ties, so it works for him.
That's it like, once you start settling down with your lass and bairn etc, doing this **** becomes a pain in the arse. If I had no ties I might well be doing the big trips away like but family comes first these days. Shelling out for a season ticket and missing half the games is a kick in the teeth as well like. Couldn't give that up though.
I know what you mean, i'm moving to Spain in 2 weeks, i still renewed, and i'll get to half the games, maybe more if i can. It's in the blood.
You can't change what you grew up with mate. Like you say, it's in the blood. I'm guessing the derby will be a game you won't miss. I've been lucky this season and got to both derbies, next season I could well miss both. Luck of the draw for me like.
I thought that Cestria seemed like one of the canny mackems but now it seems like he's one of the worse arseholes on this board. PS: In my view, Sunderland should be fairly ashamed that they only managed to beat us by one point when we've just came back (as well as being beat by us 5-1). After spending so much, you guys done what you should have done anyway by the skin of your teeth. That's not a particularly good thing. I know if it was Sunderland who went down, I'd be ****ed right off that after only one season back they're already nipping at our heels and we barely scraped past.
